It was some time ago, but things like Thonia (btw, use Karamekos... same idea, geography, culture, religion, etc), jarls, the Iron Duke, Dutchy of Ten, hobbits, etc.

Btw, the "hobbits" of old became the halflings of Blackmoor. While the docrae were the 3e halfling race we reinvented to compensate the edition difference between the races.

As to the D6 question.... :twisted:

And no. The NPCs don't have cards. And no, you can't play Cloud Strife.

As to the Lost Tome of the Forgotten Arneson's Blackmoor Lore, I have no idea where it is currently located, what the plans are for it, etc. Be sure to lurk in the garbage pits, cruise the yard sales, and stalk the streets of Florida for the next few years, at least until we know its where-abouts.
